Objective: To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of menopausal syndrome among postmenopausal women in Pan'an County, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for guiding the health management of postmenopausal women. Methods: From May 2023 to April 2024, the postmenopausal women aged 40 to 69 years in Pan'an County were selected using the random cluster sampling method. Demographic information, lifestyle and prevalence of gynecological diseases were collected through questionnaire surveys. The prevalence of menopausal syndrome was assessed by modified Kupperman Score Scale. Factors affecting menopausal syndrome were analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 816 postmenopausal women were surveyed, with an mean age of (57.63±2.92) years and a mean natural menopause age of (49.85±2.13) years. There were 574 cases with menopausal syndrome, with a prevalence of 70.34%. Flashes and sweating, insomnia and irritability were common symptoms, accounting for 62.87%, 47.43% and 41.18%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that monthly personal income of ≤5 000 yuan (<3 000 yuan, OR=3.124, 95%CI: 1.829-5.335; 3 000-5 000 yuan, OR=2.399, 95%CI: 1.370-4.201) and having gynecological diseases (OR=1.970, 95%CI: 1.292-3.004) were associated with a higher risk of menopausal syndrome, while average (OR=0.141, 95%CI: 0.072-0.276) or sufficient sleep quality (OR=0.095, 95%CI: 0.049-0.185) were associated with a lower risk of menopausal syndrome. Conclusion The prevalence of menopausal syndrome among postmenopausal women in Pan'an County is relatively high, and is mainly influenced by personal economic status, sleep quality and the presence of gynecological diseases.

Objective To form the expert consensus on the limb management of patients with transvenous temporary cardiac pacing,standardize the limb management of patients with transvenous temporary cardiac pacing,and reduce complications related to the limb.Methods Using evidence-based methods,the evidence in this field was searched,evaluated and summarized,and relevant recommendations and research conclusions were extracted and classified by the level of evidence quality,and then the first draft of the consensus was formed.From December 2023 to January 2024,through 2 rounds of expert consultation and 4 rounds of expert meetings,the content was adjusted and the consensus was reached.Results Totally 16 experts participated in the consultation.The positive coefficient is 100%;the authoritative coefficient is 0.847 and 0.836;the average value of each index is more than＞3.8;the coefficient of variation is less than 0.21.The Kendall's harmony coefficient of the 2 rounds of expert consultation is 0.372 and 0.314,respectively,which were statistically significant.The consensus covers the preoperative,intraoperative and postoperative on limb management of patients with transvenous temporary cardiac pacing.Totally 11 themes were involved,including the preoperative preparation,position and catheter fixation in operation,position and catheter fixation in postoperative,activity,turn and transfer,duty shift on limb,nursing care after withdrawal of the catheter,prevention of deep vein thrombosis of the operative limb and prevent infection.Conclusion The consensus is highly scientific,and it is helpful to standardize the limb management of patients with transvenous temporary cardiac pacing.

Objective:To analyze clinical and genetic characteristics of congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(CHH) in children.Methods:Clinical data of 0-18 year old CHH patients diagnosed in the Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including their hormone levels and genetic test results.Results:A total of 95 patients with CHH were included. Among them, 25 were diagnosed before the age of 3, 37 between the ages of 3-14, and 33 were over 14 years old at the time of first diagnosis. The primary manifestations were micropenis(95 cases, 100%) and cryptorchidism(46 cases, 48.5%). The incidence of cryptorchidism was the lowest in the group over 14 years of age. Hormonal analysis revealed that the peak levels of LH following statin B and GnRH stimulation, the peak levels of FSH after GnRH stimulation, and testosterone levels following hCG stimulation were the highest in the infant group. Genetic analysis identified 20 CHH-related genes in 61 out of 77 cases.Double-gene mutation accounted for 7.8%(6/77) and triple-gene mutation accounted for 3.9%(3/77). The most common mutations were FGFR1(18/77, 23.4%), CHD7(12/77, 15.6%), PROKR2(11/77, 14.3%) and ANOS1(6/77, 7.8%). The incidence of cryptorchidism in these four genotypes was 50%, 75%, 45.5% and 83.3%, respectively. The incidence of testicular dysfunction was 22.2%, 16.7%, 27.3%, and 16.7%, respectively, with no statistical significance.Conclusion:The primary manifestation of CHH is micropenis and cryptorchidism. In children with CHH, the incidence of testicular Leydig cell and Sertoli cell dysfunction increased with age in CHH children. FGFR1, CHD7, PROKR2 and ANOS1 were common variants of CHH.

Objective To observe the value of gastric filling ultrasound(GFUS)for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of hiatal hernia(HH).Methods Totally 71 HH patients who underwent laparoscopic HH repair and fundoplication surgery were retrospectively enrolled and divided into dysphagia group(n=23)and non dysphagia group(n=48)according to postoperative Saeed scores.GFUS parameters,including inner diameter of esophageal hiatus lumen(IDE),wall thickness of abdominal esophageal(WTE)and inner diameter of the esophageal lumen at the fold(FIDE)were compared between groups,and their value of diagnosing postoperative dysphagia were analyzed.Results In dysphagia group,IDE and FIDE were lower,while WTE was higher than those in non dysphagia group(all P＜0.05).Low IDE and high WTE were both independent risk factors of postoperative dysphagia in HH patients.The sensitivity,specificity and area under the curve(AUC)of IDE for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH was 82.64％,66.69％and 0.773,of WTE was 82.59％,68.73％and 0.793,of their combination was 88.89％,77.59％and 0.843,respectively.The AUC of the combination of IDE and WTE was higher than that of IDE and WTE alone(Z=1.328,1.364,P=0.044,0.043).Conclusion Combination of GFUS parameters IDE and WTE was valuable for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH.

OBJECTIVE To provide a detailed report and interpretation of the method and results for determining the weights of the technical indicators from the “multi-dimensional and multi-criteria comprehensive evaluation index system （first edition）” stated in Guideline for Multi-dimensional and Multi-criteria Comprehensive Evaluation of Chinese Patent Medicine.

CONCLUSIONS The process of weight determination in this indicator system is scientifically reasonable， with clear methods and clear interpretations， and is worthy of further optimization and widespread application.

The irrational use of Chinese patent medicines （CPM） is becoming more and more prominent， which makes the demand for clinical practice guidelines of CPM gradually increase. In order to make domestic scholars understand the latest developments and existing problems of the CPM guidelines， and promote its development， this paper introduced the concept of CPM guidelines， summarized the characteristics of the two development modes， namely “taking CPM as the key” and “taking disease/syndrome as the key”， and analyzed the current methodological status of developing and reporting CPM guidelines. Based on the existed problems， three suggestions have been put forward to optimize the quality of CPM guidelines， which were clarifying the target users and scope of CPM guidelines， establishing an open and transparent mechanism of the personnel involvement and process steps， and formulating implementable and operable recommendations for the use of CPM.

This paper summarized the key points and methods in terms of the establishment of the guideline working group and the management of conflict of interests， trying to provide reference for the development of clinical practice guidelines for Chinese patent medicine （CPM）. The establishment of the working group is the first important step for developing CPM guidelines. Considering the characteristics of the clinical practice guidelines for CPM， this study suggests that the three key elements of ‘multidisciplinarity’， ‘clinical relevance’ and ‘geographical representativeness’ should be put focus on when forming the working group. The guideline advisory committee， clinical expert group， evidence systematic evaluation group， secretary group and the external review group should be established. All group members should clarify the conflict of interest， and the process and management method of the conflict of interest should be clearly reported.

The systematic and comprehensive introduction and interpretation of the Reporting Checklist of Clinical Practice Guidelines for Chinese Patent Medicines V1.0 is conducive to the presentation of high-quality clinical practice guidelines for Chinese patent medicines （CPMs）， thus improving their dissemination and use. The Reporting Checklist of Clinical Practice Guidelines for Chinese Patent Medicines V1.0 specifies the requirements for clear， complete and transparent reporting of the whole process of developing CPMs guidelines， containing 4 domains， 17 topics and 43 items， and involving the basic information， recommendations and methods of guideline development. Especially， it details the items related to the rules and regulations of the use of CPMs in the recommendations， which is helpful for improving the completeness， scientificity and practicality of the reporting of CPMs guideline.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze a pediatric case of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets treated with Burosumab and improve clinicians′ awareness of the safety and effectiveness of the drug.Methods:Clinical data of the child were collected. Whole-exon genetic testing after parental consent confirmed X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. During 18 months of Burosumab treatment, fasting blood phosphorus, alkaline phosphate, calcium, and calcium phosphate product were monitored every 11-14 days. Parathyroid hormone and 25 hydroxyvitamin D were checked every 2-6 weeks, while knee spacing, liver and kidney function, urinary calcium creatinine ratio, electrocardiogram were assessed every 3 months. Radiological imaging was performed every 6 months, with continuous follow-up of the child.Results:Whole-exon sequencing results showed a c. 1080_1081insCAATGTTA(p.T361Qfs*3) spontaneous heterozygous frameshift mutation in the PHEX gene in the child, which has not been reported previously. After the patient was treated with Burosumab for 18 months, the biochemical indexes were significantly improved, and the rickets score was reduced, without gingival abscess or other adverse events.Conclusion:The variant c. 1080_1081insCAATGTTA(p.T361Qfs*3) in the PHEX gene was identified as the cause of the patient′s condition. Burosumab, as a targeted therapeutic agent for X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets, showed significant treatment efficacy.

The lack of direct evidence is an important problem faced in the formation of recommendations in rapid living guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine under public health emergencies， and the supplementation of indirect evidence can be a key method to solve this problem. For the collection of evidence， the type of evidence required， including direct and indirect evidence， should be clarified， and ‘direct first’ principle for selecting evidence can be set to standardize and accelerate the guideline development. When integrating evidence， recommendations can be formed directly if there is sufficient direct evidence， while regarding insufficient direct evidence， recommendations need to be supplemented and improved by integrating indirect evidence. In addition， when the body of evidence contains evidence from multiple sources， it is suggested to rate the evidence according to “higher rather than lower” principle. Finally， when forming recommendations， the level of evidence， safety and economic efficiency should be taken into consideration to determine the strength of the recommendation.
